Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD)is the treatment of choice for patients with periampullary tumour (benign or malignant). In the recent years, the mortality rate of PD has decreased to 5% in many centers. However, pancreatic fistula (POPF) still occurs in 5 % to 40% of patients after PD. The hypothesis that isolated Roux loop PJ with isolated pancreatic drainage decrease the incidence of PF and severity with preservation of pancreatic function. So the investigators compare isolated Roux Loop Pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) Versus Pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) as regards incidence of POPF, severity of POPF and functional outcome.

- Pancreaticogastrostomy group
- description
- Standard PD with regional lymphadenectomy was performed. PG was done between pancreatic stump and posterior surface of the stomach with 2 layer interrupted anastomosis,and duct to mucosa.

- ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
- label
- Isolated Roux PJ group
- description
- Isolated Roux PJ group, reconstruction was begun using the transected jejunum and ,which was anastomosed in end to side fashion. A separate Roux loop was performed for HJ, by dividing the jejunum about 40 cm beyond the pancreatic anastomosis and GJ was done in this loop (30 cm caudally from HJ). The PJ loop was anastomosed to the main loop (20 cm caudal to GJ).
